FCS previously maintained a "rivalry" with the Gainesville State School, a Texas Juvenile Justice Department maximum-security juvenile detention facility.
The rivalry began when FCS and Gainesville State were placed in the same district in 2008 for athletic competition.
After learning about how the Gainesville State program operated, FCS head football coach/athletic director Kris Hogan sent an unusual request to the team's fans - he asked them to form a spirit line and cheer for the Gainesville State players in their upcoming game. The game made national headlines.
The teams played again in district competition in 2009 ; the game featured Cowboys coach Wade Phillips in attendance.
Gainesville State and FCS were moved into different districts in 2010; however, FCS and Gainesville State continued the annual football game. until Gainesville State elected to play six-man football instead.
